About Craig Campobasso

Fresh out of high school, California native Craig Campobasso found himself working behind the scenes for four years on Frank Herbert’s Dune. The father and daughter producing team, Dino and Raffaella De Laurentiis, and director David Lynch, were Craig’s mentors into the business of filmmaking. Raffaella later hired him on the popular Christmas movie Prancer, starring Sam Elliott, as a casting director after he apprenticed as a casting associate on Steven Spielberg’s Amazing Stories. Craig has been casting for more than two decades and was nominated for an Emmy for casting David E. Kelly’s Picket Fences.

He also works as an acting coach in the Los Angeles area and is an author and filmmaker with several projects in production and development. These include Autobiography of an Extra Terrestrial: I Am Thyron (his own original story/trilogy of books) and a film based on the book by Dr. Frank Stranges “Stranger at the Pentagon.”
